One person was injured from a single vehicle accident north of Neepawa on Tuesday morning. An investigation into the exact cause of the accident is underway, though an eyewitness suggested that the vehicle may have hit a patch of ice as it travelled north on Highway 5 and slid into a hydro pole. Those details however, as well as the extent of the injuries to the driver have not been confirmed by emergency and police officials at this time.
